VICTORY Vintage Bronze Ladybug Sculpture, Detailed Metal Insect for Home, Garden & Yard VSB-25

1. Maintenance Frequency

① Indoor Sculptures:

⑴ Dust removal: every 8 weeks

⑵ Waxing: at least every 12 months

② Outdoor Sculptures:

⑴ Cleaning: every 12 weeks

⑵ Waxing: at least every 6 months

③ Special Environments (e.g., fountains, coastal areas):

⑴ Increase waxing frequency (e.g., every 2 months in fountain settings)

2. Cleaning Procedure

① Washing:

⑴ Use warm water and a neutral cleaner (e.g., Turtle Wax)

⑵ Gently scrub stubborn stains with a soft cloth or soft-bristle brush/toothbrush

⑶ Rinse thoroughly to avoid residue

② Stain Removal:

⑴ Promptly remove bird droppings, tree sap, etc., with warm water

⑵ Use a soft plastic scraper for persistent residues

③ Drying:

⑴ Allow to air dry for several hours (especially in warm conditions)

⑵ Ensure complete evaporation of moisture from the metal’s pores

3. Waxing Process

① Preparation:

⑴ Surface must be clean and dry

⑵ For indoor sculptures, lightly wipe with a slightly damp microfiber cloth first

② Wax Application:

⑴ Use a commercial spirit-free wax (e.g., Kiwi Dark Tan shoe polish for darker patinas)

⑵ Apply a thin, even layer in circular motions with a soft-bristle brush

⑶ Avoid thick coats to prevent whitening or brush marks

③ Polishing:

⑴ Allow wax to dry for ≈20 minutes

⑵ Buff gently with a soft, clean cloth until gloss appears

⑶ Avoid excessive rubbing to protect the patina

4. Prohibited Practices

① Do not use harsh chemicals (cleaners, tarnish removers, etc.)

② Do not use abrasive materials (steel wool, sandpaper, hard scrapers)

③ Avoid exposure to fertilizers, chlorine, pesticides, ammonia, and other corrosive substances

④ Never place in chlorinated water (e.g., swimming pools, chlorinated fountains)

5. Special Environmental Notes

① Coastal Areas: Salt accelerates patina evolution, potentially resulting in reddish/green tones—a natural process

② Natural Aging: Frequent touching, contact with plants, or bird activity may accelerate patina evolution, contributing to the character of bronze art

③ Fountain Settings: Water splash may cause color variations; increase maintenance frequency accordingly
